Step-by-step explanation:
Let the vertices be A=(1,2),B=(4,y),C=(x,6) and D=(3,5).
We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. So,the midpoint of AC is same as the mid point of BD.
Mid point of two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is calculated by the formula (x1+x2/2,y1+y2/2)
So, midpoint of AC= Mid point of BD
=>(1+x/2 , 2+6/2)=(4+3/2 , y+5/2)
=>(1+x/2 , 8/2)=(7/2/2 , y+5/2)
=>1+x=7 ; y+5=8
=>x=6 ; y=3
